Description
Your idea
MS 4.5.1: the value of the right margin for odd pages is automatically copied to left margin for pair pages => there's currently no way to have different values between odd and pair pages.
=> Please, remove that automatic setting and let the user be free to select margin sizes independantly between odd and pair pages.
Thank you
Problem to be solved
Having more freedom in pages setup ! (depending on the way you want to have your final score, it's sometimes useful to not have the same margin size between mirrored pages)

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the page-setup handling for mirrored margins and trace how the odd-page right margin is copied to pair pages. Done means users can set odd- and pair-page margins independently, with the setting reflected in the final page layout.
